Abstract

See full text

A nuclear reactor has a pressurizer housed in a vessel. Heating elements are completely housed in the pressurizer. The nuclear reactor has electrical conductors that are the only feature leaving the vessel through electrical penetrations. The nuclear reactor can be operated to produce energy. The production of energy can be stopped, and the vessel of the reactor can be opened for performing maintenance operations on elements of the pressurizer and other components of the reactor, including fuel assembly replacement. After performing maintenance operations, the vessel of the reactor can be closed and energy production resumed.
